Jenkins held Boston to just two earned runs Sunday and impressed general manager Alex Anthopoulos in the process. The GM said it was the best he's ever seen Jenkins perform.
The Blue Jays have tabbed Jenkins' next start to come either Monday or Tuesday at home against Tampa Bay. Because that start is a week away, Jenkins was available to pitch out of the bullpen Wednesday.

"There's no question that it makes you feel like you're closer and makes you feel like you want to continue to go out there," Carpenter said. "I don't want to get ahead of myself.

Dunn can be a streaky home-run hitter, but Fantasy owners haven't been staying away from him because of his power this season; it is because he can single-handedly kill your team batting average. He raised his average 19 points Wednesday, all the way to .156.
Frankly, if you couldn't stomach Dunn's batting sub-Mendoza line batting average before his two-day outburst, there is little reason to think you will be able to moving forward. He is who he is at this point.

Reynolds left the game later, more for a defensive switch than an injury, according to manager Terry Francona.
"He just needed to get the feeling back," Francona said. "We [took him out because we] wanted to get [Nick Swisher] out of right. [Reynolds] is okay."
The slugger is batting .271 on the season after a double in the third inning that scored a pair of runs. He has homered 11 times with 34 RBI this year.
"Just kind of hyperextended it a bit," Reynolds said. "I had to get feeling back because it's tough to hit with a numb arm. Maybe it will shorten my swing a bit."

"What didn't make sense is to bring him up here for two days," Bochy told MLB.com. "We told him to [stay behind]."
Cain is 2-0 with a 1.76 ERA through two starts in May.

"He did that three days ago," manager Ron Roenicke said Wednesday. "I think we will have a few of those with him, and then get him some live hitters."
The left-hander has been sidelined since early April due to an injured middle finger.
